Correctional Dinnerware
Durable Copolymer Dinnerware for Prisons, Jails, and Detention Facilities
Shop OnlineJonesZylon's standard correctional dinnerware line is engineered for the demands of high-volume institutional food service. Made from copolymer — a durable, impact-resistant plastic that holds up to commercial dishwashers, repeated daily use, and institutional cleaning cycles — our compartment trays, insulated trays, drinkware, utensils, plates, and bowls are the workhorse of correctional dining across prisons, jails, and detention centers nationwide. Available in multiple colors to support color-coding by housing unit, security level, or dietary requirements.
Operating a high-security or segregation unit? Our MaxFlex Flexible Dinnerware line is engineered specifically for environments where standard dinnerware poses a security risk — it can't be sharpened, fractured into shards, or used as a weapon.

Operating a High-Security or Segregation Unit?
Standard copolymer dinnerware isn't the right fit for every correctional environment. If your facility includes high-security wings, segregation units, or any housing where dinnerware can become a safety risk — our MaxFlex Flexible Dinnerware line is designed for exactly that challenge. MaxFlex can't be sharpened, can't be fractured into shards, and tears with a dull edge rather than snapping into dangerous pieces. If melted, it does not re-harden, eliminating another common weapon-making pathway.
